My Notes edit

My self-summary

I kind of consider myself a bit of an oddball and geek. I'm pretty laidback, read wayyy too much, and love a good conversation (favorite subjects being technology, philosophy, physics - least favorite subjects being religion, politics, and finances).

Since I grew up the ugly duckling and a tomboy - I wouldn't really say I have an uber-romantic side. I'll take any ivy over a bunch of roses (I prefer that the plant is still alive). I'll take a stadium hot dog and baseball game over a romantic dinner, and I really dislike the word "cuddle", "wuv" (not a word I know), "cutie", "baby" (like don't ever call me "baby").

What I'm doing with my life

I tend to try to do a lot at once, so at the moment:

- Working a 9-6 full time professional job at a software company as a software specialist.

- Going back to school in March to pursue the rest of my degree.

- Trying to get involved again with FIRST (spent 4 years in it and miss being involved) or Special Olympics (was involved 4 years as a Unified Partner for basketball and track and field).

- Trying to travel a lot more.

I'm really good at

I make awesome lasagna. =) But I won't make it for you until I've known you for a long time.

Directions - good at giving them and figuring out where I'm going.

Being empathetic - I'm realizing I'm almost painfully (to myself) empathetic. I don't think I've ever turned anyone (even complete strangers) away from venting or talking to me about their issues, and I keep thinking about it and trying to find resolutions for weeks after.

The first thing(s) people usually notice about me

I'm short (5'1ish - not that bad).

I apparently look way younger than I am. Youngest I've heard so far is 12, most common is 15 or 16. But to put a positive spin on it - just think how I'll look when I'm 40!

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Books - almost anything by Jodi Picoult, also like Catcher in the Rye, anything by George Orwell (1984, etc.)...

Movies - Good Luck Chuck is my favorite (I am as accident prone as the character Cam), otherwise I like comedies. I love Pixar movies, so Wall-E was just amazing. Also love the holy action hero movies like IronMan...

Music - 90's music. Love Gin Blossom, GooGoo Dolls, Third Eye Blind, etc.

Food - Lasagna! =)

The six things I could never do without

My fleece

My flip-flops

My laptop

A camera (and memory card and spare batteries)

My pets (My rats: Otis and Jude, My tortoise: Hazel)

My family

I spend a lot of time thinking about

Education plans...

Money stuff...

Uh...

Did I mention I have the attention span of a goldfish?

On a typical Friday night I am

I'm either with family or just relaxing at home.

The most private thing I'm willing to admit here

I'm seriously terrified of the dark for no logical reason whatsoever. I quite seriously sleep with nightlights on.

You should message me if

You are comfortable in your own skin, and open-minded.

Or if you're simply just looking for someone to hang out with, go to the bars with, etc. Manchester isn't very kind to the lone 20 something. =D
